West 125 Viaduct Lights

At our last Merchants' Meeting, we were joined by representatives from EDC to discuss the streetscape project on West 125th Street. One of the aspects of the project will be gorgeous lighting installed under the 12th Avenue Viaduct, slated to be completed in 2016.
Besides looking beautiful, bringing even more charm to the area, and accentuating the elegant viaduct, the lights will also turn blue when a train approaches the 1 station.
"The improvements are intended to create connections between the various forms of transportation — subway, bus, bikes, and pedestrian — while promoting a vibrant street life on W. 125th St." For more information on the viaduct lights, read the full article at the NY Daily News

First Meeting of 2014

2014's First West 125 Merchants Alliance (steering committee to expand the BID boundaries) Meeting was held on Tuesday, January 28th at West Harlem Development Corp.

  

Some of the businesses in attendance included: Rite Check, ECDO, Amalgamated Bank, Duane Reade, and MyTime Academy; in addition to community representatives from the NYPD 26th Precinct, L&M Development Partners, and Community Board 9. Special Guests included: NYC EDC, who provided an update on the West 125th Street Streetscape project, and the New York Chamber of Commerce, who expressed interest in working with the group to help businesses in Harlem connect with other businesses in the City.

The next step in the process involves assessing the needs of the property owners, which is in progress. The next meeting will be held at the end of March.
